2 Corinthians 10:8
For though I might take pride in our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for your destruction), it will not be a cause of shame to me:

2 Corinthians 10:8
For though I might take pride in our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for your destruction), it will not be a cause of shame to me:
--------------------
2 Corinthians 13:10
For this cause I am writing these things while I am away, so that there may be need for me, when I am present, to make use of sharp measures, by the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for destruction.
2 Corinthians 10:6
Being ready to give punishment to whatever is against his authority, after you have made it clear that you are completely under his control.
2 Corinthians 10:7
Give attention to the things which are before you. If any man seems to himself to be Christ's, let him keep in mind that we are as much Christ's as he is.
2 Corinthians 10:8
For though I might take pride in our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for your destruction), it will not be a cause of shame to me:
2 Corinthians 10:9
That I may not seem to have the desire of causing you fear by my letters.
2 Corinthians 10:10
For his letters, they say, have weight and are strong; but in body he is feeble, and his way of talking has little force.
2 Corinthians 10:11
Let those who say this keep in mind that, what we are in word by letters when we are away, so will we be in act when we are present.
2 Corinthians 12:19
It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.
2 Corinthians 12:20
For I have a fear that, when I come, you may not be answering to my desire, and that I may not be answering to yours; that there may be fighting, hate, angry feeling, divisions, evil talk about others, secrets, thoughts of pride, outbursts against authority;
2 Corinthians 13:2
I said before, and still say it before I come, as being present for the second time, though I am still away from you, to those who have done wrong before, and to all the others, that if I come again I will not have pity;
1 Corinthians 4:19
But I will come to you in a short time, if it is pleasing to the Lord, and I will take note, not of the word of those who are full of pride, but of the power.
1 Corinthians 4:20
For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.
1 Corinthians 4:21
What is your desire? is my coming to be with punishment, or is it to be in love and a gentle spirit?
2 Corinthians 10:1
Now I, Paul, myself make request to you by the quiet and gentle behaviour of Christ, I who am poor in spirit when with you, but who say what is in my mind to you without fear when I am away from you:
2 Corinthians 10:2
Yes, I make my request to you, so that when I am with you I may not have to make use of the authority which may be needed against some to whom we seem to be walking after the flesh.
Galatians 1:1
Paul, an Apostle (not from men, and not through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who made him come back from the dead),
-----
1 Corinthians 5:3
For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;
1 Corinthians 5:4
In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you have come together with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
1 Corinthians 5:5
That this man is to be handed over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may have forgiveness in the day of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 13:11
And now, see, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind and not able to see the sun for a time. And straight away a dark mist came down on him; and he went about looking for a guide.
1 Timothy 1:20
Such are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given up to Satan, so that they may say no more evil words against God.
-----
2 Corinthians 10:3
For though we may be living in the flesh, we are not fighting after the way of the flesh
2 Corinthians 10:4
(For the arms with which we are fighting are not those of the flesh, but are strong before God for the destruction of high places);
2 Corinthians 10:5
Putting an end to reasonings, and every high thing which is lifted up against the knowledge of God, and causing every thought to come under the authority of Christ;
-----
2 Corinthians 5:1
For we are conscious that if this our tent of flesh is taken down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in heaven.
1 Corinthians 3:9
For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.
1 Corinthians 3:10
In the measure of the grace given to me, I, as a wise master-builder, have put the base in position, and another goes on building on it. But let every man take care what he puts on it.
1 Corinthians 8:1
Now about things offered to images: we all seem to ourselves to have knowledge. Knowledge gives pride, but love gives true strength.
1 Corinthians 14:4
He who makes use of tongues may do good to himself; but he who gives the prophet's word does good to the church.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
So then, go on comforting and building up one another, as you have been doing.
1 Corinthians 10:23
We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.
1 Corinthians 14:26
What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.
Ephesians 4:12
For the training of the saints as servants in the church, for the building up of the body of Christ:
Romans 14:19
So then, let us go after the things which make peace, and the things by which we may be a help to one another.
1 Corinthians 10:33
Even as I give way to all men in all things, not looking for profit for myself, but for the good of others, that they may get salvation.
1 Corinthians 14:12
So if you are desiring the things which the Spirit gives, let your minds be turned first to the things which are for the good of the church.
Ephesians 4:16
Through whom all the body, being rightly formed and united together, by the full working of every part, is increased to the building up of itself in love.
Ephesians 4:29
Let no evil talk come out of your mouth, but only what is good for giving necessary teaching, and for grace to those who give ear.
-----
Philippians 1:20
In the measure of my strong hope and belief that in nothing will I be put to shame, but that without fear, as at all times, so now will Christ have glory in my body, by life or by death.
2 Corinthians 7:14
For I was not put to shame in anything in which I may have made clear to him my pride in you; but as we said nothing to you but what was true, so the good things which I said to Titus about you were seen by him to be true.

And hope does not put to shame; because our hearts are full of the love of God through the Holy Spirit which is given to us.

And now, my children, keep your hearts in him; so that at his revelation, we may have no fear or shame before him at his coming.
-----
2 Corinthians 1:23
But God is my witness that it was in pity for you that I did not come to Corinth at that time.
2 Corinthians 1:24
Not that we have authority over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy: for it is faith which is your support.
2 Corinthians 2:1
But it was my decision for myself, not to come again to you with sorrow.
2 Corinthians 2:2
For if I give you sorrow, who then will make me glad, but he who is made sad by me?
2 Corinthians 2:3
And I said this very thing in my letter, for fear that when I came I might have sorrow from those from whom it was right for me to have joy; being certain of this, that my joy is the joy of you all.
-----
2 Corinthians 12:11
I have been forced by you to become foolish, though it was right for my praise to have come from you: for in no way was I less than the chief of the Apostles, though I am nothing.
2 Corinthians 11:16
I say again, Let me not seem foolish to anyone; but if I do, put up with me as such, so that I may take a little glory to myself.
2 Corinthians 12:6
For if I had a desire to take credit to myself, it would not be foolish, for I would be saying what is true: but I will not, for fear that I might seem to any man more than he sees me to be, or has word from me that I am.
2 Corinthians 11:1
Put up with me if I am a little foolish: but, truly, you do put up with me.
-----
2 Corinthians 13:3
Seeing that you are looking for a sign of Christ giving out his word in me; who is not feeble in relation to you, but is strong in you:
1 Corinthians 9:3
My answer to those who are judging me is this.
1 Corinthians 14:37
If any man seems to himself to be a prophet or to have the Spirit, let him take note of the things which I am writing to you, as being the word of the Lord.
2 Corinthians 11:6
But though I am rough in my way of talking, I am not so in knowledge, as we have made clear to all by our acts among you.
2 Corinthians 13:8
Because we are able to do nothing against what is true, but only for it.
-----
2 Corinthians 2:16
To the one it is a perfume of death to death; to the other a perfume of life to life. And who is enough for such things?
-----
2 Corinthians 3:1
Do we seem to be again attempting to put ourselves in the right? or have we need, as some have, of letters of approval to you or from you?
2 Corinthians 5:12
We are not again requesting your approval, but we are giving you the chance of taking pride in us, so that you may be able to give an answer to those whose glory is in seeming, and not in the heart.
2 Corinthians 10:12
For we will not make comparison of ourselves with some of those who say good things about themselves: but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and making comparison of themselves with themselves, are not wise.
